The winding cobblestone streets so characteristic of Paris mean that not every building can be built as a perfect rectangle. From its imperfection is what gives the city charm and that extends to this furnished one bedroom apartment rental in Butte-aux-cailles. Like water, this apartment follows the path of least resistance embracing asymmetrical walls and mimicking the streets outside with winding dips and turns.
When you arrive to rue le Dantec and rue Barrault, you can’t help but fall in love with this apartment at first sight. The front entrance leads you into an amusing kitchen with lots of little built-in shelves and cabinets wrap around the aforementioned winding walls. A retro refrigerator and industrial bank drawers top make the finishing touches. The living room has high ceilings and light hardwood floors. A colorful, bohemian rug is hard to pull your eyes away from even to pay attention to the stunning modern art hanging on the walls or abundance of natural light filling the area. The one bedroom is furnished with a queen sized bed, hidden bookshelves, and delicate pink curtains.
The neighborhood of Butte-aux-cailles is like a little hilly village in the ultramodern 13th arrondissement. It’s adored by locals, but overlooked by tourists where you can have an authentic experience of Parisian charm. Embrace the art nouveau architecture throughout the neighborhood such as at the Place Paul Verlaine (450m/0.3mi), a natural spring of water where visitors can fill their bottles with fresh, drinkable water. Little cafes and traditional French restaurants line the streets including Chez Gladines (300m/0.2mi), serving Basque cuisine and one of the best valued meals in the city.
The apartment is close to the train at the Place d'Italie station (650m/0.4mi). On Place D’italie, you can find a strip of chain clothing stores and restaurants. Also nearby is the Corvisart station (280m/0.2mi), Les Gobelins (1km/0.6mi), and Gare D-austerlitz station (2.5km/1.5mi), all allowing easy access to other parts of Paris.
